Courtney is a certified mat and reformer Pilates instructor. She has a love for the fluid and precise movements of the reformer but has a soft spot for the hot mat room on a cold morning. She loves walking her dog, reading a trashy book and making jewellery. Her classes will challenge you and make you sweat but she comes with a killer playlist so it’s always a fun time! 💪🏼
